I spent a couple of hours on 5th October, 201, a Saturday with four wonderful women, diving into the world of brush lettering. The venue was this beautiful art studio on Kanakapura Road, ideal for art workshops and art-a-thons.
We had a fairly varied set of backgrounds but each with some artsy connection – One teenager, who’s learning many different art forms and skills and enjoys ink doodling, but also brings to the table the inherent advantage of being still very comfortable and used to using pens and paper (We’ve gone very digital!). Two women with strong decoupage backgrounds and one with an artistic bent of mind that includes watercolor works, music, lettering and a whole bunch of other things too!
We spent our three hours learning basic strokes, alphabets, words, connections and finally also designing and making one creation to take back home on watercolor paper. One participant created a bunch of different designs, I love this enthusiasm!
There was also a popup by Artzo, a stationery store – they had a wonderful selection of all types of pens, papers, even some hard to snag brands like Sakura and Tombow. I cannot wait to visit the store in person and fill my bag with goodies!
Loved how this workshop went, can’t wait for the next one!
